Patient Reviews
Jul 03, 2023
When Dr Mitruka was a CardioThoracic surgeon many years ago at Eisenhower Medical Center in Rancho Mirage, CA, he performed an Open-Heart Mitral Valve repair procedure on me which I am thankfully still doing well because of his skills. That surgery was done 16 years ago today, July 2, 2023, so I express my sincere appreciation for his exceptional work together with his fellow surgeon, Dr Joseph Wilson, who assisted that day. Kudos to both of you.
